PREFACE. 

In placing this work before the Druggist, it is the aim of 
the authors to give those recipes which are of value to the 
Pharmacist, as well as practical. We do not claim this book 
to be as large as many others on the market, but we do claim 
to give more and better formulas than any work on perfumery 
ever published. This book does not contain a formula which 
is not practical, or can not be made by any druggist. Our long 
experience in the manufacture of perfumery enables us to 
give that practical knowledge which experience and deepest 
study alone can give. 

Respectfully, 

Chas. E. Hamlin, 
Chas. Warren.

INTRODUCTION AND HISTORY. 


From the most ancient times, perfumes of various sorts 
have been held in high estimation. It is affirmed that after 
the destruction of the Clove trees, by the Dutch, in the Island 
of Ternate, the colony suffered from epidemics, unknown be¬ 
fore ; and in times when cholera has prevailed in London and 
Paris, those employed in the Perfumery factories have es¬ 
caped its ravages. The art of perfumery was practiced to 
an extraordinary extent by the ancient Egyptians, Greeks, 
and Romans. The odor of Perfumes was an offering to the 

Gods, and the apparition of these was always represented as 
accompanied by an ambrosial fragrance. Oils, Pomatums 
and other perfumes were used most lavishly ; their baths and 
their wines were also perfumed. Pliney has given a very 
full account of the extraordinary varieties of perfumes in use 
by the Romans under the Emperors. The perfumers were 
mostly Greeks, and occupied a special quarter of Rome. 
Their shops were favorite resorts for fashionable loungers. 
In the middle ages France and Italy were most conspicuous

for the manufacture and use of perfumes. Incense and fra¬ 
grant tapers were consumed in the Catholic churches, as early 
as the baptism of Clovis, in 496. Alcoholic perfumes are sup¬ 
posed.to have been first made in the fourteenth century, and 
the first of these of which we have an account is Hungary 
Water, distilled from Rosemary in thirteen hundred and 
seventy, by Elizabeth, Queen of Hungary, who obtained the 
recipe from a hermit, and by its use is said to have preserved 
her beauty to old age. 

In England, a taste for perfumes appears to have been 
prevalent in the time of Shakespeare, and in that of Dean 
Swift. The shops of the perfumers were the resorts of loung¬ 
ers, as they were in ancient Rome. 

The taste for perfumes and cosmetics is at the present 
day carried to a very high pitch.* Immense factories have 
been established and storehouses built, and some of the finest 
and most fragrant perfumes are made by our own American 
manufactures, and many of the formulas which I shall give in 
this work are in use by some of our leading perfumers. 









PIlFUMIi, 

The perfumes for the handkerchief, as found in the per¬ 
fumery stores, are either simple or compound. The former 
are called Extracts; the latter Bouquets, which are mixtures 
of the extracts so compounded in quantity that no one flower 
or odor can be discovered as predominating over another, 
and when made of the delicate scented flowers carefully 
blended they produce an exquisite sensation on the olfactory 
nerve, and are therefore much prized by all who can afford 
to purchase them. 

ESSENTIAL OILS. 

It is necessary to use the purest and best Essential Oils. 
Some works on perfumery devote several pages to Oils; I 
prefer to give my attention to the formulas, and leave this 
part to the U. S. Dispensatory. I shall term all oils as Ottos. 

ALCOHOL. 

Only the purest Alcohol should be used, and it should 
be ninety-five per cent. Atwood’s Alcohol is much the best 
and I would especially recommend it. No one can make 
good Extracts or Colognes, unless they use pure Alcohol— 
what some writers term Cologne Spirits. 




HA AILIN' S FORMULA i.

Tinctures are used in Perfumery as a basis, and to give permanence to 
odors. 

TINCTURE OF AMBERGRIS. 

Ambergris, one drachm.

TINCTURE OF MUSK. 

Finest Tonquin Musk, one drachm. 

Powdered Pumice Stone, one drachm. 

Hot Water, two ounces. 

Alcohol, fourteen ounces. 

Aromatic Spirits of Ammonia, half drachm.

HAMLIN'S FORMULA s'. 



EXTRACT OF CASSIE, from Pomade. 

Cassie Pomade, No. 30, five pounds. 

Alcohol, five pints. 

Put the Pomade into a wide mouth bottle, add the Alcohol, and 
shake thoroughly several times every day for ten days, when decant off 
the Extract, and again subject the Pomade to another five pints Alcohol, 
and proceed as before. When done, the two Extracts should be mixed. 
It is necessary to chill the Extract so as to separate all the Pomade from 
the Alcohol, then filter quickly. 

The best way to wash Pomades is to have a churn made out of cop¬ 
per and lined with block tin, similar to an ice cream freezer. If the churn 
is used and constantly worked it is only necessary to wash the Pomades 
from three to six days, for each wash. 

It is necessary with all the Extracts to make two washes, and mix 
them, this makes the Extract the strength of one-half pound Pomade to 
the pint of Alcohol. 

In the different formulas I shall term these Extracts or Washes as 
Extracts from Pomade. 


EXTRACT OF JASMIN, from Pomade. 

Jasmin, Pomade, No. 30, five pounds. 

Alcohol, five pints. 

Proceed as with Cassie. 

EXTRACT OF ORANGE FLOWER, from Pomade. 

Orange Flower Pomade, No. 30, five pounds. 
Alcohol, five pints. 

Proceed as with Cassie. 

EXTRACT OF ROSE, from Pomade. 

Rose Pomade, No. 30, five pounds. 

Alcohol, five pints. 

Proceed as with Cassie.

Alcohol, five pints.

Note. —I have had many inquiries from customers of my first and 
second editions, where they could obtain the purest and best of Essential 
Oils, Musk, Ambergris, Civit, etc., and for the benefit of such, I would 
here state that Messrs. Fritzsche Bros.. 51 and 53 Barclay street, New 
York, always keep in stock every article used by the perfumer. I have 
dealt with them for several vears and I have found them at all times 
reliable. I consider their Flower Pomades and Essential Oils the finest 
I have ever used, and I can conscientiously recommend them.

very little account, as they have no lasting qualities and little fragrance, 
but are similar to what many perfumers put up as cheap goods and sold 
in fancy bottles with showy labels or scrap pictures on the bottles, and 
to properly designate them, I will term them as Extracts No. 5.

to color a barrel.
